DNG, Adobe

DNG is an Adobe raster image format similar
to TIF. It provides no projection information and is primarily used
for photography and non-spatial graphics arts.

To import
from DDR, LAS format:

Choose File-Import from
the main menu.

In the Import dialog
browse to the folder containing data of interest.

Double-click the file
ending in .dng to
import that file

A table and an image will be created.

Clicking on the salzburg
market... file for the file folder shown above will result
in the creation of a table and an image that displays the data in the
table.

We can double-click
the image to view it.

The image seen above is the same photograph
published in larger
size and in zoomed-in
detail on the Data Sources page on the Manifold website.
The image was photographed tilted slightly to the right,
with an uneven horizon.

Notes

Storing
photos in Manifold - Although Manifold is used mostly for geographic
data there are applications which utilize photographs that are convenient
to store in a Manifold project where we can work on them with SQL and
Manifold functions. Manifold is especially convenient for browsing
collections of very large images that take too long to open in packages
like PhotoShop.
